Mushroom Bolognese x Dauphinoise Potatoes

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7

Peel and finely slice your potatoes into thin discs (roughly the thickness of a £1 coin)

Add the potato discs to a baking tray (or two!)

Add a drizzle of olive oil and a small pinch of salt and give everything a good mix up

Sprinkle with cold water (this will help the potatoes cook through!) and put the tray[s] in the oven for 15-20 min or until tender

Meanwhile, peel and finely slice your brown onion[s]

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Chop your tomato[es] finely

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the sliced onion and chopped tomato and cook for 3-4 min or until beginning to soften

Grate your white cup mushrooms

Boil half a kettle

Once the onion and tomato have began to soften, add the grated mushrooms, half the chopped garlic (you'll use the rest later!) and a small pinch of salt to the pan

Increase the heat to high and cook for 4-6 min further or until softened

Grate your cheddar cheese

Once softened, add your vegetable stock mix and tomato paste to the pan with your soy sauce and 100ml [130ml] [170ml] boiled water, season with a generous grind of black pepper, bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for 3-4 min further or until thickened – this is your mushroom bolognese sauce

Combine your clotted cream with 100ml [130ml] [170ml] milk and put in the microwave for 1 min or until the cheese has melted, once melted, add the remaining garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper to the bowl and mix to combine – this is your creamy garlic sauce

Once the sauce has thickened, transfer the mushroom bolognese sauce to a oven-proof dish (or use individual ones for fancy presentation) and top with layers of the cooked potatoes

Pour the creamy garlic sauce all over and sprinkle with the grated cheese

Put the dish in the oven for 15-20 min or until golden and bubbling – this is your mushroom bolognese x dauphinoise potatoes
